Mid purple, the nose still quite reticent but with a peppery note. 10% pedicel treatment. I wonder if the wood is talking as the pepper continues in the mouth. I think this is going to work out very well though because it is not vegetal at all, and the fruit behind is lively and persistent.

An exuberantly fresh nose features good aromatic breadth with its array of plum, dark pinot fruit, violet, rose petal and anise. There is a bit more volume and richness if perhaps a bit less minerality to the delicious and vibrant flavors that exhibit very good length on the less austere yet firm finish. This too offers very good quality in a style intended to reward mid-term cellaring.

The 2021 Chambolle-Musigny Clos le Village offers up aromas of sweet plums, red berries, raw cocoa and smoke. Medium-bodied, supple and seamless, it's fleshy and polished, with melting tannins and bright acids. It's more suave and giving than the Vieilles Vignes bottling this year.
